Q&A on Consciously Live What You Feel by Terrance (Terry) Swejkoski

Consciously Live What You Feel has inspired countless readers to step into mindfulness, nurture emotional awareness, and unlock pathways to personal growth. If you’re curious about what makes this book a profound guide for living more consciously, you’re in the right place. Below, we tackle common questions about the book, its themes, and the benefits it offers, providing you with a closer look at this transformational guide.

What is the core message of Consciously Live What You Feel?

At its heart, Consciously Live What You Feel encourages readers to turn inward and pay attention to their emotions as guides rather than obstacles. It invites us to slow down, recognize the nuances of our feelings, and live authentically in alignment with our true selves.

The book emphasizes the importance of emotional awareness—understanding, accepting, and fully exploring our emotions. It’s not about controlling or suppressing feelings but learning to listen to them with compassion and presence. Through this process, we gain a more profound conscious clarity, connect with our purpose, and cultivate harmonious relationships with ourselves and others.

Ultimately, Consciously Live What You Feel serves as a reminder that by consciously living through our feelings, we gain the tools to lead a life of mindfulness, intention, and fulfillment.

How does the book help readers incorporate mindfulness into their everyday lives?

The book is rich with practical exercises that allow readers to experience mindfulness rather than just read about it. These practices are simple yet impactful, designed to integrate seamlessly into daily routines. Some examples include mindful breathing exercises, journaling prompts for emotional reflection, and grounding techniques like focusing on the five senses.

For example, one exercise invites readers to pause during the day and do a “body scan,” observing physical sensations and emotional states without judgment. This small act of mindfulness helps reduce stress, enhance presence, and create moments of self-awareness even amidst life’s busyness.

Each chapter offers actionable insights and tools, making mindfulness accessible to readers at every stage of their growth journey. It’s about building consistent, sustainable habits that foster greater peace and balance.

Who would benefit most from reading this book?

Consciously Live What You Feel is a book for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of themselves and their emotions. Whether you’re new to mindfulness or an experienced practitioner, its practical approach makes it accessible while offering profound teachings for spiritual and emotional exploration.

This book is particularly relevant for those who feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in repetitive emotional patterns. It helps readers unravel these experiences, build resilience, and rediscover their inner strength.

It’s also an excellent choice for those looking to strengthen their relationships—with partners, friends, family, or even colleagues. By fostering emotional awareness and empathy, the book offers tools to enhance communication and strengthen bonds with others.

How does the book address emotional awareness, and why is it so important?

I view emotional awareness as the foundation of mindful living. Many of us ignore or suppress emotions because they feel uncomfortable, but the book teaches that emotions are essential messengers. Each one—whether joy, fear, anger, or sadness—holds valuable information about our needs, boundaries, and inner truths.

The book empowers readers to pause, name their emotions, and explore what those feelings might be trying to teach them. This act of acknowledgment transforms emotions from challenges into opportunities for growth. By fostering this awareness, we develop emotional intelligence, which enhances our ability to manage stress, make decisions with conscious clarity, and cultivate healthy relationships.

My compassionate approach to emotions reassures readers that there’s no “wrong” feeling. Instead, I encourage curiosity and kindness toward all emotional experiences from a conscious perspective.

What makes Consciously Live What You Feel different from other mindfulness books?

What sets this book apart is its deeply personal and compassionate tone. Rather than presenting mindfulness as an idealistic concept, I write with warmth and relatability, offering practical guidance rooted in real-life experiences.

The book combines storytelling, insightful reflections, and practical exercises, striking a balance between inspiration and action. Readers don’t just learn about mindfulness—they are invited to practice it in ways that feel intuitive and meaningful.

Additionally, the book takes a unique stance by placing emotional awareness at the center of mindful living. While many mindfulness books focus primarily on staying present, Consciously Live What You Feel emphasizes the essential role emotions play in that practice. It’s this integration of mindfulness and emotional connection that makes the book a powerful resource for holistic self-discovery.

Can you share an example of how this book has impacted readers?

Absolutely! One reader shared that the book helped them shift their perspective on anger—a feeling they had previously avoided. By applying the book’s techniques, they learned to sit with the emotion, understand its source, and channel it constructively. This shift not only reduced their stress but also improved their relationships with loved ones, as they were able to communicate their feelings more effectively.

Another reader described how the book’s mindfulness practices transformed their daily routine. Simple acts helped them feel more grounded and less overwhelmed, such as taking mindful pauses during the workday and keeping a journal before bed. They found a new sense of clarity in their decision-making and a deeper appreciation for life’s small moments.

Stories like these highlight the book’s ability to resonate on a personal level and inspire lasting change.

What role does vulnerability play in the book’s teachings?

Vulnerability is a recurring theme in Consciously Live What You Feel. I encourage readers to view vulnerability not as a weakness but as a vital component of authenticity and connection. By opening ourselves to our emotions and allowing others to see us fully, we create space for deeper relationships and personal growth.

The book reassures readers that facing vulnerability can be a courageous act. I offer gentle guidance to help readers sit with discomfort, overcome fear, and trust in their inner strength. This perspective transforms vulnerability from something to be avoided into something to be embraced as an integral part of mindful living.

What’s the best way to engage with the book’s teachings?

The beauty of Consciously Live What You Feel lies in its flexibility. You can read it cover to cover or explore specific chapters based on what resonates with you most at a given moment.

For the fullest experience:

  1. Set aside time each morning or night to absorb each topic thoughtfully without judgment.
  2. Spend a day incorporating each topic into your daily routine before moving on to the next topic.
  3. Engage with the practical exercises and journaling prompts—don’t skip these, they are powerful!
  4. Reflect on how the teachings align with your own life and begin introducing small, mindful habits into your daily routine.

If you’re part of a book club or discussion group, consider sharing the experience with others. The book’s themes spark meaningful dialogue, inspiring connection and collective growth for groups.

Emotional Awareness

Understanding Emotional Awareness and Its Role in Mindful Living

We often find ourselves navigating life on autopilot, reacting to situations without truly understanding why we feel a certain way. Our emotions, a vibrant spectrum of joy, sadness, anger, and everything in between, are more than fleeting reactions; they serve as profound messengers, inviting us to listen, reflect, and connect on a deeper level. Emotional awareness—the ability to recognize, understand, and work with these emotions—is a critical part of personal growth and mindful living.

Inspired by the teachings in my book Consciously Live What You Feel, this post explores the essence of emotional awareness, its importance in fostering self-discovery, and practical ways to nurture it in our daily lives.

What Is Emotional Awareness?

At its core, emotional awareness is about being in tune with your emotions and understanding how you feel about them. It involves identifying your feelings, understanding their triggers, and perceiving how they affect your actions and interactions. More than that, it’s the practice of accepting those emotions without judgment.

Many of us suppress or deny certain feelings, believing them to be unproductive or harmful. But emotions—whether they bring comfort or discomfort—carry valuable insights. They reflect our needs, boundaries, and values. When we learn to observe and welcome them, we unlock the ability to respond to life with greater clarity, compassion, and intent.

Why Does Emotional Awareness Matter?

  • It Deepens Self-Understanding

Emotional awareness acts as a mirror, reflecting our inner world. By recognizing what we feel and why, we gain insight into our desires, fears, and patterns. This self-awareness forms the foundation for personal transformation and authenticity.

  • It Enhances Mindful Living

Mindfulness and emotional awareness are closely intertwined. When we’re aware of our emotions, we’re better equipped to stay present and engage fully with our experiences. This connection creates a richer, more grounded life.

  • It Boosts Emotional Resilience

Life inevitably brings challenges and setbacks. Emotional awareness provides us with the tools to process these difficulties in healthy ways, thereby reducing the tendency to react impulsively or avoid discomfort.

  • It Strengthens Relationships

Being aware of your own emotions allows you to respond to others with empathy. This awareness enhances communication, builds trust, and fosters deeper, more meaningful connections.

How to Develop Emotional Awareness

Cultivating emotional awareness is a lifelong practice, not a destination. Here are five practical steps I feel will assist you in beginning to integrate this essential skill into your daily life:

  1. Create Space to Pause

Life moves quickly, leaving little room to notice our emotional state. To develop emotional awareness, begin by incorporating intentional pauses into your daily routine. These moments of stillness allow you to check in with yourself.

How:

Set aside time to sit quietly, close your eyes, and tune in to your body. Ask yourself questions like, “What am I feeling right now?” or “How does my body feel in this moment?” This simple act of noticing helps you reconnect with your inner experience.

Tip:

Use reminders, like an alarm on your phone or visual cues, to establish the habit of regular emotional check-ins.

  1. Name Your Feelings

Putting words to your emotions can demystify them and make them easier to process. Instead of dismissing feelings as vague discomfort, explore and define them.

How:

When you experience a strong emotion, pause and identify it. Is it frustration or sadness? Maybe it’s a mix of excitement and anxiety. There’s no “right” answer—what matters is your honesty.

Tip:

Journaling can be a powerful tool here. Write about your emotions and their possible triggers to gain a deeper understanding of your internal world.

  1. Practice Self-Compassion

Often, we resist certain emotions because they feel uncomfortable, inconvenient, or shameful. Emotional awareness invites us to approach these feelings with compassion instead of judgment.

How:

When you notice a complex emotion, please take a moment to acknowledge its presence. Remind yourself that it’s okay to feel this way. Speak kindly to yourself, as if you were comforting a loved one.

Tip:

Use affirmations like, “It’s natural to feel this way,” or, “My emotions are valid and important.” These gentle reminders can shift self-critical narratives.

  1. Explore Your Triggers

Understanding what causes your emotions can help you respond to triggers thoughtfully rather than impulsively. This understanding is invaluable for emotions that feel overwhelming or repetitive.

How:

Reflect on recent emotional experiences. What circumstances or interactions preceded them? Were there any patterns? Over time, developing this awareness can reveal more profound insights into your needs and boundaries.

Tip:

When you notice a pattern tied to negative emotions, consider how you can approach similar situations differently in the future.

  1. Use Mindful Practices to Stay Present

Being present allows you to experience your emotions without becoming fully consumed by them. Mindfulness practices, such as meditation or mindful breathing, anchor you in the moment and deepen your emotional awareness.

How:

Try a simple mindful breathing exercise when you feel a strong emotion. Focus on your breath, observing it without trying to change it. Allow the emotion to rise and fall naturally, noticing its impermanence.

Tip:

Combine mindfulness with movement, such as yoga or walking meditation, if sitting still feels challenging.

The Path Toward Greater Emotional Awareness

Developing emotional awareness is an ongoing process that requires patience and a curious mindset. By bringing mindfulness to your emotions, you not only foster a deeper understanding of yourself but also cultivate a life of greater balance and harmony.

It’s essential to approach this practice with gentleness. Remember, the goal isn’t to become “perfect” at managing emotions or to avoid unpleasant feelings altogether. Instead, it’s about creating space for all emotions to exist, viewing them as valuable teachers rather than obstacles.

Explore Emotional Awareness with Consciously Live What You Feel
